JLR Range Rover, Defender and Discovery Get Up to Rs 30.4 Lakh Price Cut in India

Jaguar Land Rover (JLR) has announced a price reduction across its SUV range in India, including the Range Rover, Defender and Discovery. The move follows the implementation of the new Goods and Services Tax (GST 2.0) structure, which came into effect in September 2025.

The Range Rover has recorded the largest price cut among JLR models. Depending on the variant, reductions begin at around Rs 4.6 lakh and extend up to Rs 30.4 lakh. The Defender now comes with revised prices, reduced between Rs 7 lakh and Rs 18.6 lakh. The Discovery, meanwhile, has received cuts ranging from Rs 4.5 lakh to Rs 9.9 lakh.

The GST 2.0 reforms have adjusted tax rates across segments. Petrol cars under four metres with engines below 1,200 cc now fall under the 18 percent GST bracket, down from 29 percent. Similarly, diesel cars under 1,500 cc have dropped from 31 percent to 18 percent. Mid-size vehicles have moved from a 45 percent to 40 percent slab, while large SUVs and luxury cars, previously taxed at 48 to 50 percent, now face a flat 40 percent GST rate.

Rajan Amba, Managing Director, JLR India, said, “The GST rationalisation on luxury vehicles is a welcome move for customers and for the industry. This move will provide much-needed impetus reinforcing our confidence in and commitment to India's luxury market.”
